BENEFIT:
Paul, his wife, and his three kids cannot be together right now. They want to be together. They need to be together. But they cannot be together...
Due to an unfortunate housing situation, Paul and his family have been split up. He and his wife stay at an area "mission shelter" (one for women...and one for men), and his three children stay with his sister-in-law (they are able to stay in school by doing this). Because of the "mission's" strict policies, Paul and his wife have to leave early in the morning and must be back to the "mission" by 6 pm each day during the week. Because of this schedule, Paul, who is in a work training program at Chattanooga Goodwill, does not see his wife for the majority of the week, and usually only sees his kids on the weekends.
What else makes Paul's situation so unique?
He has no transportation...
He has no immediate family in the area...
He was involved in an accident in 1992 that that injured both hands....leaving only his thumbs...
He is an extremely hard worker...
He has a smile on his face daily...
He speaks positively about his life...
He desperately wants to put his family back together again...
He and his family need OUR help.
